Happy Memorial Day!

If you need us this weekend, we'll be here!


We're headed down to Steinhatchee today with both of our families for boating, fishing, and 'laxing! I want to wish everyone an early Happy Memorial Day! I'm so excited for summertime!

Before I go, here's a great little Memorial Day recipe that goes great with anything you put on the grill! I made Paula Deen's Tomato Pie when we went to Blue Ridge last weekend, and it was fantastic! (Pretty much anything Paula Deen makes is, right?!)

I didn't take pictures of me making it, but here's Paula's Pic and Recipe! Enjoy!

Tomato Pie Recipe

Ingredients
  • 4 tomatoes, peeled and sliced
  • 10 fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onion
  • 1 (9-inch) prebaked deep dish pie shell
  • 1 cup grated mozzarella
  • 1 cup grated cheddar
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • Salt and pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the tomatoes in a colander in the sink in 1 layer. Sprinkle with salt and allow to drain for 10 minutes.
Layer the tomato slices, basil, and onion in pie shell. Season with salt and pepper. Combine the grated cheeses and mayonnaise together. Spread mixture on top of the tomatoes and bake for 30 minutes or until lightly browned.
To serve, cut into slices and serve warm.


P.S. My blog got a little summer make-over....you like?
